I will give Jerusalem a river of peace and prosperity. I will comfort you there in Jerusalem as a mother comforts her child. – Isaiah 66:12,13 (NLT)
LIKE A MOTHER’S COMFORT
A poem and essay by ILMA
When your life is full of challenges and trials
Do you run to God for comfort or are you in denial?
God promises his people to have peace and prosperity
He consoles you like a mother gives comfort and stability.
The Lord nurtures us and wants us to grow in love
He commands us to love one another and look above
He is faithful to meet your needs and be there for you
He will lavish you with blessings and make your life new.

Mothers are one of the greatest gifts that God gave mankind. Without them, we will never be born. They have a special place in God’s heart. He has given them the responsibility to nurture and be the first person to show love to the baby. Even in the womb, the woman was given a special bond to communicate her love for the unborn child. She was chosen by God to be instrumental to bring life into this world.
The bible clearly shows us that God is very nurturing and loving. He is love. He promises those who love him that they will have peace and prosperity. He comforts his people like a mother comforts her own child.
PRAYER
Thank you for all mothers and using them to bring life and love.
REFLECTION
Share an experience when God comforted you like a mother would.

LIKE A MOTHER

A poem by ILMA

Who can ever provide a love that is unconditional?

Women are gifted with instincts that are maternal

A mother provides all she can to protect her family

She will do everything to bring them up righteously.

Like a mother, God comforts his children daily

He gives them hope and loves them completely

He promises his beloved children great riches

His faithfulness endures forever which brings fullness.

Motherhood is one of the hardest roles a person could ever handle. I think God gave mothers special gifts and the power to press on in life.  From the time of conception, it is amazing how mothers are given the strength to handle the changes in their bodies and their emotions. When women are pregnant, they go through major hormonal changes in their bodies, which often times are hard to deal with. If you are a woman, you probably know what I am talking about. The cravings, the mood swings, the heightened sensitivities to different things.  God has equipped women to have emotional strength to bear difficulties. How awesome is our God who designed women to have the capacity to nurture and care. The bible tells us that God is like a mother who constantly comforts her child.

PRAYER

Lord, make me more caring and nurturing.

REFLECTION

Why do you think God likens himself to a mother?
